What are the differences between Smart Forms and Adobe Forms?
For both of them, SAP dynamically creates a function module that must be called from an ABAP program to generate the form
In Smart Forms, it is possible to add ABAP code during generation of the form, that is not possible with Adobe Forms
It is possible to add javascript or FormCalc code in Adobe Forms, which is executed during the generation of the form
Other differences are indicated in Note 1009567 Functional differences SAP Interactive Forms/Smart Forms

Forms and SAP BI Launch pad

Hi All,
I apologize in advance if this is the wrong place, but this crosses 2 paths. PDf Forms and SAP BI Launch Pad
I have a PDF Form created in Adobe LiveCycle and I wanted to add it to the CMC so users of the Launch Pad could all have access in one place to all company forms, and it looks fine, but the buttons no longer work, (submit, print, drop downs), and the tab order is all over the map. Is this not possible?
Any help greatly appreciated!
Erin

if you just mean that when some people reach the page they are still seeing enterprise as default and not SAP it is because of cookies in their browser. Have them clear their cache and try again.

Interactive Edge and SAP insight paper on Category Management

Dear Business Process Experts,
This is the thread to discuss our joint Interactive Edge and SAP insight paper on Category Management in the Consumer Products industry.
In our paper and accompanying demo we examine the current challenges and recommend an approach to empower them to work more efficiently. Please have a look to the BPX site:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/60e32cff-5b0f-2a10-f582-8e8bb3daef39
Tell us what you think. We are very interested to receive feedback and look forward for a lively discussion on this site.
Best regards,

Dear Thomas,
I have gone through your articleit is very interesting and eye opener for Retail industry.
For retailers, category management (CM) is the process of maximizing category profits through coordinated item assortment, promotion and pricing. It has been gaining popularity because retailers have come to realize that a better understanding of the interdependencies in consumer and manufacturer behavior among various brands in a category can increase the profitability of the category as a whole.1 CM is a significant departure from the traditional approach that considers brands independently, and has been adopted by an increasing
number of companies in the retail industry.
Therefore adopting a CM perspective could increase total profit. Yet, despite
the optimistic view, there is little consensus on how to implement CM in order to achieve its greatest profit potential. This is at least in part caused by a lack of analytical tools to support CM decisions, and calls for econometric methods that enable retail managers to implement CM.
<b>To cater and support this requirement, SAP IS Retail component should support following functionality;</b>
When we create a Article group using MC / Brand and use the article group in the pre-requisite of the Bonus buys, the bonus buys creates conditions at article level for all the articles in the article group. It also sends all articles in the Bonus buy Idoc WPDBBY. This functionality causes lot of performance issues while creating Bonus buys at SAP end, as well as at the POS end, since POS needs to go an check item by item. (Segment E1WPBB02). Therefore, SAP should come out new functionality for sending just the Merchandising category (MC) name or the brand name in the Bonus buy Idoc ( WPDBBY01) in the pre-requisite section instead of all the items within the MC or the brand.

What are strengths and weaknesses of the sap.m.Shell and sap.m.App as container for an application wrapper?

My question today: What are strengths and weaknesses of the
sap.m.Shell
and
sap.m.App
as container for an application wrapper?
I currently use non of them, but I see the advantages.
SAP best practise is to use one of them or nest them as shell > app. What are strengths and weaknesses of the approaches?

We prefer to say, the tender mercies of the Fetch block.
You'll notice the "wfm info" cluster as an output of the Fetch
VI. This cluster has gain and offset members- use these to scale
your binary data to floating point voltage representation.
As you point out, the numbers won't be exactly what you expect given
the vertical range and the device resolution. There are a few
reasons for this. First, we don't use the absolute full scale of
the ADC for the maximum input voltage. There are a couple of
codes of headroom at the top and bottom. This allows your input
signal to slightly exceed the specified vertical range without clipping
(you'll get a warning from the driver). Second, these gain and
offset numbers take into account calibration information for your
device. Using these numbers will correct for small deviations
from the ideal offset and gain.
So if you use the gain and offset numbers from the driver, your
measurements will be more accurate than if you assume 0 offset and
perfect gain. They will be most accurate if you make sure to
perform a self-calibration once the device is in your system and at the
temperature that your tests will be run.

I want to know which changes the developers made an why they did it? What are the advantages of the new Netweaver system? Are there disadvantages? Does someone have some links to articles which deal with those questions? Thanks.
Kind regards,

Difference between SAP 4.7EE and SAP ECC 6.0 in terms of ABAP

Hi all,
I would like to know the differences between the SAP-4.7EE and SAP ECC 6.0 in terms of ABAP?
can any body Please Help me?

Hi Vijay,
In terms of ABAP some function modules are obsolete in 4.7.
e.g WS_UPLOAD, WS_DOWNLOAD etc.
You can find the list of obsolete FMs in the table RODIR.
These need to be replaced in the ECC System.
Also ECC is very strict in case of EPC Errors. You need to check the EPC and remove the call function interface errors where it says SLIN observes catching of a runtime error. These might work with no issues in 4.7 but will shortdump in ECC.
If you are doing to a unicode conversion also. you need to check the transaction UCCHECK for unicode errors.
You also need to replace obsolete statements like >< and => , =< etc.
Please let me know if you need any further info on this.
Thanks,
Sai

Connectivity between SAP ECC system and SAP BI

Connectivity between SAP ECC system and SAP BI
Hi BI-experts!
I would like to load e.g. transaction data from SAP ECC system into SAP BI system.
The Loading process is hanging in processing step u201CSERVICE APIu201D.
The process in hanging in status "yellow" and then changed after a while to status u201Credu201D.

Question:
Can some one tell me whether my distribution model or other settings are wrong?
I created 2 distribution model (BD64), one from SAP BW system and other from SAP BI system with message types RSRQST, RSINFO, RSSEND
Thank you very much!

Hi Holger.
this issue is related to the RFC but not the one which is communicating from BI to R/3 rather the one which is communicating from R/3 to BI follow these steps.
1. check your BI system logical name from the myself source system.
2. go the ECC and run the transaction sm59
3. go the ABAP Connection folder and search for your RFC which name would be by default as per your BI logical system name.
4. double click it and edit it now check whether the Target hostname or ip is OK.
5. In the logon tab check the client number User and password settings.
Save it and test it with both Connection Test and Remote Logon.
if every thing work fine i hope your problem will be solved.
kind regards,
Zeeshan

I opened my form and downloaded the form to post on my website... but the submit button is not working.

What am I doing wrong? The first time I created my form I used Acrobat and the FormsCentral embedded in the program. The original form was working, but I had to make some changes to it. I can't get FormCentral to launch within Acrobat anymore. I loaded my new form (with the changes) to Forms Central through the browser interface, yet when I open the form and download the form to post the posted form does not work. Help!

Hi,
if it's ok for you, people can send a email at your adress, it's enough to use (translated from German-DW):
Insert -> email link. In my DW it looks lik this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>eMail</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="mailto:[email protected]">eMail</a>
</body>
</html>
The users click into the word "eMail" your eMail-program wil start.
Naturally there are som other ways, like this for example:
<td width="35%"><input id="send" type="submit" name="Submit" value="send" />
I suggest first try or test the easy way.

How to Reconcile Data Between SAP Source Systems and SAP NetWeaver BI

Hi,
I just read "How to Reconcile Data Between SAP Source Systems and SAP NetWeaver BI". While I'm waiting for more authorisation to r/3 to carry it out and test this functionality.
I'd like to ask a question to anyone who has implemented this type solution. On page 10 it talks about creating a view then setting up the datasource. The solution talks about runnig a query. I suspect when we run a query I would run it for only a period(using variable) to reconcile.
My question is this. Will the datasource extractor on /r3 only select the period in our variable or will it do a full selection of the data which would then be passed to BW for filtering?
Regards

DEar Mark,
There are several avenues where you can see and reconcile your data with source system, u can see data in by tcode RSA3 for a datasource, and compare the values with actual document posted into the R/3 system. Respective fuctional consultant canhelp you a lot to confirm the data.
On BW side u can see the data in PSA and then check tranformations which subsequent change/update/reject data records based on the selective conditions.
hope this helps.
Kindly assign the points if it works.
Revert back if u need futher help/information.
